It is, however, neither an anomaly nor entirely ambient. This is not a side project. From his numerous dance scores for New York City Ballet to instrumental albums such as Enjoy Your Rabbit, Aporia, and The BQE, Stevens spends at least half his working life making largely instrumental music, as he has for decades. And though the first ten pieces, dubbed \"Meditations,\" unfurl as gorgeous states of reflective new-age grace, this is by no means an ambient enterprise. Stevens invokes the lessons of Morton Subotnick, Maryanne Amacher, Christian Fennesz, Brian Eno, and Wolfgang Voigt here. As musically erudite as it is emotionally experienced, Convocations can be dissonant, vertiginous, rhythmic, repetitive, urgent, or calm-that is, all the things we undergo when we inevitably live through loss, isolation, and anxiety. \u003c\/p\u003e Shop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e 24\/7.\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42788324606173,"sku":"729920164844","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/products\/vbualz5lyvqe1qdfyukc.jpg?v=1731252247"},{"product_id":"sufjan-stevens-carrie-lowell-2","title":"Sufjan Stevens- Carrie \u0026 Lowell (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003eCarrie \u0026amp; Lowell sounds like memory: it spans decades yet does not trade on pastiche or nostalgia. Stevens's gauzy double-tracked vocals wash across the dashboard of long-finned, drop-top Americana, yet as we race towards the coast we are reminded that sunshine leads to shadow, for this is a landscape of terminal roads, unsteady bridges, traumatic video stores, and unhappy beds that provide the scenery for tales of jackknifed cars, funerals, and forgiveness for the dead. Each track in this collection of eleven songs begins with a fragile melody that gathers steam until it becomes nothing less than a modern hymn. Sufjan recounts the indignities of our world, of technological distraction and sad sex, of an age without neither myths nor miracle - and this time around, his voice carries the burden of wisdom.

It's been said that writing about music is like dancing about architecture (impossible and absurd). But what about singing about movies? Sufjan Stevens and Angelo de Augustine have paired up for a collaborative project that does just that. A Beginner's Mind is their debut album that contains 14 songs (loosely) based on (mostly) popular films. The source material is highbrow, lowbrow, and everything in between. The music is folksy, sweet, sincere and harmonically effervescent-Simon \u0026amp; Garfunkel with New Age flourishes. This album runs the gamut and has fun with it, even while it's songwriters remain fully rooted in the melancholy folk idioms they are known for. Daniel Anum Jasper, a pioneer of Ghanian movie poster painting, was commissioned to paint a series of new works for A Beginner's Mind. His paintings are a graphic simulacrum for the same sense of wonder, wordplay, and intrigue that shape A Beginner's Mind. By transforming old films into vital new songs, Stevens and de Augustine ask us to consider ourselves from a previously unconsidered vantage point-a new way of seeing and hearing-an exercise that's as necessary and relevant now as it's ever been.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e1\u003c\/span\u003e Reach Out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e Lady MacBeth in Chains\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e Back to Oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e4\u003c\/span\u003e The Pillar of Souls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e5\u003c\/span\u003e You Give Death a Bad Name\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e6\u003c\/span\u003e Beginner's Mind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e7\u003c\/span\u003e Olympus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e8\u003c\/span\u003e Murder and Crime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e9\u003c\/span\u003e (This Is) the Thing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e10\u003c\/span\u003e It's Your Own Body and Mind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e11\u003c\/span\u003e Lost in the World\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e12\u003c\/span\u003e Fictional California\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e13\u003c\/span\u003e Cimmerian Shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e14\u003c\/span\u003e Lacrimae\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShop online 24\/7 at \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43516507357405,"sku":"729920164998","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/3997528-2740557.jpg?v=1736048712"},{"product_id":"sufjan-stevens-illinoise-2","title":"Sufjan Stevens- Illinoise (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA 22-track anthematic tone poem to the Prairie State, emphatically answering the question, \"Can a songwriter express the spirit of a state he's never called home?\" Sufjan weaves various musical styles (jazz, funk, pop) and instrumental textures into a tapestry of persons famous, infamous, and anonymous, and places iconic, obscure, and ghostly.

With a series of meticulous collages, cut-up catalog fantasies, puff-paint word clouds, and iterative color fields, Sufjan builds order from seeming chaos and vice versa.

This new album is probably his most unusual, first, for its lack of conceptual underpinnings, and second, for its extensive use of electronics. While the sounds on this record are distinctly “artificial” (drums machines and analog synthesizers reign supreme), the proclamations of the songs are unabashedly visceral, sung loudly, with a backdrop of insistent orches-\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003etration. The result is an album that is perhaps more vibrant, more primary, and more explicit than anything Sufjan has done before, incorporating themes that are neither historical nor civic, but rather personal and primal (if even a little juvenile). Love, sex, death, disease, illness, anxiety, and suicide make appearances in an aggressive (and sometimes danceable) tapestry of electronic pop, conveyed with the urgency, immediacy, and anxiety of primary colors.

Sufjan uses the quietness of a solitary confession to ask universal questions in songs we can share communally. Accompanying the CD and LP formats of the album is a 48-page book of art and essays. With a series of meticulous collages, cut-up catalog fantasies, puff-paint word clouds, and iterative color fields, Sufjan builds order from seeming chaos and vice versa.

It's been said that writing about music is like dancing about architecture (impossible and absurd). But what about singing about movies? Sufjan Stevens and Angelo de Augustine have paired up for a collaborative project that does just that. A Beginner's Mind is their debut album that contains 14 songs (loosely) based on (mostly) popular films. The source material is highbrow, lowbrow, and everything in between. The music is folksy, sweet, sincere and harmonically effervescent-Simon \u0026amp; Garfunkel with New Age flourishes. This album runs the gamut and has fun with it, even while it's songwriters remain fully rooted in the melancholy folk idioms they are known for. Daniel Anum Jasper, a pioneer of Ghanian movie poster painting, was commissioned to paint a series of new works for A Beginner's Mind. His paintings are a graphic simulacrum for the same sense of wonder, wordplay, and intrigue that shape A Beginner's Mind. By transforming old films into vital new songs, Stevens and de Augustine ask us to consider ourselves from a previously unconsidered vantage point-a new way of seeing and hearing-an exercise that's as necessary and relevant now as it's ever been.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReach Out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Lady Macbeth in Chains\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Back To Oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Pillar Of Souls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e You Give Death A Bad Name\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Beginner's Mind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Olympus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Murder And Crime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e (This Is) The Thing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e It's Your Own Body And Mind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Lost In The World\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fictional California\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Cimmerian Shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Lacrimae\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003eShop online 24\/7 at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BWSCD, INC.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45005995966685,"sku":"729920164981","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/3997527-2740556.jpg?v=1727230277"},{"product_id":"sufjan-stevens-love-yourself-with-my-whole-heart","title":"Sufjan Stevens- Love Yourself \/ With My Whole Heart (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003eFour track single from Sufjan Stevens including the 1996 demo version of the track as well as a short reprise, releasing in honor of Pride Month in June.

ILLINOIS, the follow-up to MICHIGAN in his \"50 States\" project, again demonstrates his ability to realize a music vision through his moving songs, musicianship (he plays 25 instrums on the album), production and arrangments. While some musical and literary influences are felt and heard, Stevens' total involvement in every phase of the project results in a thoroughly unique result. On his second meditation on an American state, a 22-track anthematic tone poem for Illinois, Stevens weaves variegated musical styles and instrumental textures into a tapestry of person famous, infamous and anonymous, and places iconic, obscure and abandoned. Love, loss, faith, the unique character of place, encounters with spiritual stength in unexpected places, incomprehensible horror and celebratory odes to the rise and fall of human works are among the themes Stevens visits in his ode to the Prairie State.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Concerning the Ufo Sighting Near Highland, Illinois\u003cbr\u003e2 The Black Hawk War, or, How to Demolish An Entire Civilization and Still Feel Good About Yourself in the Morning, or, We Apologize for the Inconvenience But You're Gonna Have to Leave Now, or, 'I Have Fought the Big Knives and Will Continue to Fight\u003cbr\u003e3 Come on!

It is, however, neither an anomaly nor entirely ambient. This is not a side project. From his numerous dance scores for New York City Ballet to instrumental albums such as Enjoy Your Rabbit, Aporia, and The BQE, Stevens spends at least half his working life making largely instrumental music, as he has for decades. And though the first ten pieces, dubbed \"Meditations,\" unfurl as gorgeous states of reflective new-age grace, this is by no means an ambient enterprise. Stevens invokes the lessons of Morton Subotnick, Maryanne Amacher, Christian Fennesz, Brian Eno, and Wolfgang Voigt here. As musically erudite as it is emotionally experienced, Convocations can be dissonant, vertiginous, rhythmic, repetitive, urgent, or calm-that is, all the things we undergo when we inevitably live through loss, isolation, and anxiety. Indeed, Convocations moves like a two-and-a-half-hour requiem mass for our present times of difficulty, it's 49 tracks allowing for all these feelings to be felt. The album is divided into five sonic cycles, each replicating a different stage of mourning. \"Meditations\" work toward acceptance and resolution, of coming to terms with the day's news even if it stings. The subsequent \"Lamentations\" slink, sputter, and sometimes grind, as sadness transmutes to anger and back again. The rhythmic drift and glitchy strata of \"Revelations\" allow for confusion and catharsis, of asking just why the world or the heavens have wronged us. With it's bright tones, occasional sweeps of strings, and scrambled voices, \"Celebrations\" offers furtive bits of fondness, though the nostalgia is never far removed from the news that prompted it. The final nine \"Incantations\" are lessons for those of us who remain, gorgeous and galvanizing reminders that our time here is as limited as the possibilities for how we spend it are infinite. Convocations occasionally soothes and sometimes hurts; when it's done, you're left with a renewed sense of wonder for being here at all.In fact, Stevens made Convocations in response to (and as an homage to) the life and death of his father, who died in September last year, two days following the release of The Ascension. It is, then, ultimately an album about loss, and an album that reflects a year in which we have all lost so much. One could easily compare this project to Stevens' album Carrie \u0026amp; Lowell, which he wrote following his mother's death. But this is something entirely different. A new time, a new season, a new life lost, a new reckoning, a new kind of isolation, grief, despair, frustration, confusion, and the search for happiness and hope for the future. This is not a personal record, but a universal one. Convocations is built on a shared experience that seeks to be honest about how complicated grief can be in these difficult times-the pain, the anxiety, the unknown, the absolute joy of memory. This is also an album made in lockdown, when we were all cloistered in whatever space we had. So long as the science and statistics hold, Convocations arrives just as we begin to emerge from a year whose losses we will calculate for a lifetime. It is, then, right on time, as we begin to process our grief and try to carry on with it. -Grayson Haver Currin\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeditation I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMediation II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeditation III\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMediation IV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeditation V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeditation VI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeditation VII\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeditation VIII\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeditation IX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeditation X\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamentation I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamentation II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamentation III\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamentation IV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamentation V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamentation VI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamentation VII\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamentation VIII\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamentation IX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamentation X\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevelation I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevelation II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevelation III\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevelation IV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevelation V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevelation VI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevelation VII\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevelation VIII\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevelation IX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevelation X\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCelebration I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCelebration II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCelebration III\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCelebration IV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCelebration V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCelebration VI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCelebration VII\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCelebration VIII\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCelebration IX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCelebration X\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncantation I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncantion II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncantation III\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncantation IV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncantation V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncantation VI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncantation VII\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncantation VIII\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncantation IX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46983069991133,"sku":"729920164950","price":25.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/4007869-2741784.jpg?v=1762924686"},{"product_id":"sufjan-stevens-greatest-gift","title":"Sufjan Stevens- Greatest Gift (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Greatest Gift is a mixtape of outtakes, remixes and demos from Sufjan’s 2015 album Carrie \u0026amp; Lowell. Already on vinyl and digital, the mixtape arrives on CD format on November 16. This collection serves as a companion piece to the Carrie \u0026amp; Lowell Live album released earlier this year (and as an expansion to the original album). In the same way the live show featured re-interpretations of the songs from Carrie \u0026amp; Lowell, the mixtape unveils new remixes by several longstanding collaborators including Roberto C. Lange (akaHelado Negro), Thomas Bartlett (aka Doveman), and James McAlister (aka 900X). The album also features Sufjan’s own remix of “Drawn to the Blood.”The mixtape includes a few alternate and\/or demo versions of songs from the original album. The digital release also contains an iPhone demo of the song “Carrie \u0026amp; Lowell.”The mixtape features four previously unreleased new songs, “official” outtakes from Carrie \u0026amp; Lowell (they were recorded at the same time as the album). These include“Wallowa Lake Monster,”“The Hidden River of My Life,”“City of Roses,” and “The Greatest Gift.” This new material, in its investigation of love, life, death, God, and the beautiful state of Oregon, serves as a contemplative companion to the original album.
